Directed by the late great Harold Ramis (Dr. Egon Spengler in Ghostbusters) this 2000 fantasy-comedy film remake of the 1967 film of the same name, originally written by Peter Cook and Dudley Moore, which was itself a comic retelling of the Faust legend, stars Brendan Fraser (Blast From the Past, Encino Man), Elizabeth Hurley (My Favorite Martian (1999 Film Adaptation), Austin Powers 1 & 2), Frances Ann O'Connor (A.I., Mansfield Park), and Orlando Jones (MADtv, the 7 Up Guy). This Special Edition DVD is one of four films to support the failed Nuon chip enhanced DVD players. If you have one of these rare DVD players you can utilize the "N-hanced DVD" Nuon features but it plays fine on any region 1 or region free player. This is a DVD so of course it's standard definition. If this matters to you it is out on Blu-ray now. Mine is widescreen (2.35:1) so play with your TV's zoom until it fills your modern 16:9 screen. *PG-13 (arbitrary US rating system) *DVD Encoding: Region 1 *Layers: Dual *Available Audio Tracks: English (Dolby Digital 5.1), English (Dolby Digital 2.0 Surround), French (Dolby Digital 2.0 Surround) *Available subtitles: English, Spanish *Region 1 encoding (US and Canada only) *Color, Closed-captioned, Widescreen, Dolby *Commentary by director Harold Ramis *Commentary by Elizabeth Hurley and Trevor Albert Rotten Tomatoes gave it 51% and IMDB gave 6/10 (for what that's worth) and it was a box office success. My opinion: I'm not gonna say this is a great movie, but it gets a few laughs, and I like a lot of the players. Spoiler: Elizabeth Hurley is the devil.Read full review

If you are looking for a funny movie, this is it. I would not recommend this movie for young children. It's rated PG-13 for some sexual content. Brendan Fraser plays a computer technician who is a hopeless romantic. He's in love with a woman who doesnt know he exists. He sells his soul to the devil (played by Elizabeth Hurley), for 7 wishes. He uses his wishes to try to win over the woman he loves, but whenever he makes a wish, the devil will ad a twist.
A great movie all around. Rite up there with The Big Lebowski and Office Space. The special edition extra features are amongst the best also. There's an entire extra 'wish' easter egg sene thats funnier than the sene they replased it with!

Really enjoyed this movie about an annoying nerd who sells his soul to the devil for 7 wishes which all backfire on him as he tries to win the heart of his true love. It is a really cute entertaining movie, which I had to buy because I can no longer find it anywhere.
